Famous quotes containing the word society:

    “... if a person is to be unconventional, he must be amusing or he is intolerable: for, in the nature of the case, he guarantees you nothing but amusement. He does not guarantee you any of the little amenities by which society has assured itself that, if it must go to sleep, it will at least sleep in a comfortable chair.”
    —Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)

    “If a test of civilization be sought, none can be so sure as the condition of that half of society over which the other half has power.”
    —Harriet Martineau (1802–1876)

    “The web of domination has become the web of Reason itself, and this society is fatally entangled in it.”
    —Herbert Marcuse (1898–1979)
